like many of you here have already noted, finding information about Scagel on the internet is hard.

I am specifically interested in the upcoming book about him, I heard it is due out next year sometime - does anyone have a link to the publisher's site?

Also, I am interested in seeing photo's of Scagel's workshop either during his lifetime or current photos. Is his old workshop in Michigan now a museum or is it privately owned? What part of Fruitport is it located in, as in, what is the street address of it, so I can look for it on Google earth?

I have read and re-read McEvoy's book on Scagel as well as most articles that I have come across over the years. To my knowledge, I have yet to see or handle a Scagel knife in my life. I would like to get the chance to look one over one of these days. His life and story were inspirational to me when I was a teenager and really into knives. Now, my hobby is making musical instruments, but I retain a respect for Scagel's independent attitude and consistent design themes over his career.

Any further information regarding Scagel would be great. I am sure that this question gets posted from time to time, so I apologize for being repetitive.
 
holiday, you can use the link below to leave your contact information with the CKCA and we will get it to the writers of the upcoming Scagel Book as both Buddy Thomason and Dr. Lucie are members.
Buddy frequents this forums however he may miss this thread as he's probably busy finishing up his photo work from last weekend's Denver Show.
